Visual aspect: deep golden amber gleaming hue, orangey tinges. Nose: very aromatic, fig, mango, clementine, mandarin, spices, acacia honey. Palate: exceptional. Fine, silky, elegant, mineral, resounding palate on mango and mandarin aromas, freshness. Flavours of rancio in the finish which brings length. Crisp, delicate, complex. Gourmet pairings: lobster carpaccio and slices of mango. Comments: a Rolls Royce from the Charente, haute couture and refinement.
